I Am

Standard

I find myself 

Wandering in the densest

Forest.

Without a sound I lay myself down

In the moss, the twigs, the leaves

And I breathe.

I am them and they are me,

The earth,

The stars,

This air.

And that has to be enough in this moment 

For I hang on silently,

The merest

Particle

Brushing my fingertips;

As this air strums my

Out of tune heart,

Strings stretched to snap.

Thump.

As my heartbeat slows i am

Reimmersed;

Securely wrapped

In the cocoon;

The womb, The tomb.

In stillness I become the miraculous healing.

All else is released but love.

In a gasp of breath reborn;

Nothing remains to mourn.

I am.

Future

Standard

We cannot change the past

But we certainly can make sure we send nothing but love

Into the future.

We can refuse to continue throwing

Hate and anger into the future for the children to clean up.

We are here and we are now.

We are not living anyones life but our own.

We are here and now.

What can we do in the here and now to love?

Forgive. Honor. Cherish. Listen.

We can refuse to throw debris and the weight of hate forward into little hearts and hands

To catch.

We lay it down here.

We let it go now

So they may be free;

Have room to

Hold, love, carry and help.

Enough

Is enough.

Accept we are enough and they too are enough.

Love is enough.

Loving hearts, loving minds and loving actions.
